Abstract: An applicator of a clip system includes an elongated member and a bushing coupled to a distal end of the elongated member and a coupling movably attached to the bushing. A capsule is coupled to the coupling via a coupling member hooked over a hook of the coupling. Proximal ends of clip arms are received within the capsule and a core member received between and connected to the proximal ends of the arms includes a projection and a failure point distal of the projection. The core member is coupled to a control member so that movement of the control member relative to the elongated member opens and closes the arms. The projection is configured so that, when the clip is clipped over tissue, the coupling is drawn into the body and the projection drives the coupling member radially outward off the hook to free the capsule.

Abstract: A monitor mounting system which includes a crossbar having at least one monitor mounting bracket positioned thereon. A support arm is configured to adjust the vertical height of the crossbar and a pivot assembly is positioned between the support arm and the crossbar, with the pivot assembly configured to allow limited pivot adjustment of the crossbar in order to level the crossbar to the horizontal position.
